About Me

Name:

While confusing to look at, it is not "Ron" as sometimes can be misinterpreted. It is actually a tribute to an inspirational cartoon of times past, Voltron.

Age:

If you ask, I might tell, but in the upper-20's lower-30's for a ballpark estimate.

Sports:

I like everything from Fútbol to Football, but haven't been as enthused about the NBA, since Jordan. Their hearts just aren't in it.

Programming

Mainly driven by web scripting and relational database systems, but would really like to learn more about game design as well as core-level architecture.

Enthused Languages:

C++, Java, JavaScript, Perl, PHP, Python, Ruby, SQL|PL/SQL

Debates - Stance

MySQL vs PostgreSQL

PostgreSQL, especially 9.0, faster, stronger, and more importantly: more reliable.

PHP vs Perl

Depends on the language, but primarily Perl. Afterall, it was a Perl programmer that developed PHP only to use in addition to his Perl tasks, not as a replacement for it.

Apple vs Microsoft

Both. Competition drives the markets and will hopefully bring out the best in both. They both develop products to service their clients. Being a programmer, I prefer a MS or Linux based OS, preferably Red Hat or Ubuntu.
